Stars drew a pretty short straw getting Avs round 1 lol

The new NHL bracket is terrible. I miss the 1 vs 8 format

I think the new format is good. It almost guarantees rivalry series and sets up teams in the same division to play each other.

I find this gets the best quality of drama and intensity

I don't mind that they do it for round one but I think it should shift to top seed vs worst remaining seed in round 2.

I like the fixed bracket for the betting / competition aspect of things. Kinda fun to submit only once

Definitely. Lightning as well with the Panthers. Congrats you had over 100 points and finished second, now play the defending champs and current favourite to win the cup (based on vegas odds).

Not sure. They were hoping he would be good for game 1. He practiced yesterday but they haven't said if he will be ready or not.
